LONDON, England— Tottenham kept its small hopes of a top-four finish alive with a 3-1 win over Fulham in the Premier League on Saturday.

Paulinho put Tottenham ahead with a simple tap-in after Christian Eriksen’s free kick beat the Fulham defense but Steve Sidwell equalized just two minutes later. Kane restored Tottenham’s lead after the interval with a header from Aaron Lennon’s cross and Kaboul made it 3-1 as he turned home another good free kick from Eriksen.
